Noooooo! There goes our dream final of Spain VS Brazil. Then again, overconfidence doesn’t get you anywhere, so we’d better shut up about defeating South Africa tonight because they might pull a USA and suffocate Kaka and the fantastic Felipe Melo in midfield – like what they did to Xavi yesterday.
“We did a very good job of sealing down the middle of the field. When you play Spain you have to work hard as a group to defend and when we had the ball we needed to be aggressive,” admitted USA’s coach Bob Bradley.
Anyway, all good things come to an end and it’s the same with Spain after their 2-0 loss yesterday. A perfect, squeaky clean winning record will eventually be ousted – especially in football. But ombres – a significant number who were in Barca’s treble-winning squad – are desperately in need of a break. And whaddya know? Pique and Raver Ramos are booking flights to Ibiza as we speak!
